Hotel Tamarind Tree ★★★★★

📍 Hotel Tamarind Tree Mahasenpura, Tissamaharama

"Lovely hotel. Stayed here for just one night so we could do the yala safari the following morning. Staff very welcoming and even layed out a special table arrangement for our dinner as it was our honeymoon. Breakfast was boxed and arranged ready for our trip to the safari. Would highly recommend staying here"

Oak Ray Wild Yala ★★★★★

📍 115 Tissamaharama - Kataragama Rd, Mahasenpura, Tissamaharama

"The environment is great and quiet, and both the courtyard and rooms are clean. There are also heaters in case it gets cold at night. However, the in-room facilities are a bit old, the shower water pressure is low, and dinner was just okay. But for a hotel in the mountains, it's understandable, and compared to other hotels nearby, it's still worth recommending."

Nature Resort - Yala Safari Hotel
8.1 (6 reviews)

Nature Resort - Yala Safari Hotel ★★

📍 77HJ+478, Aluthgoda Road, Tissa, Yala, Tissamaharama

"Fantastic Yala Safari and great little hotel! We had a great time staying here - and went on a great Jeep safari with Pasanna organised through the hotel. The whole family (2 teenage boys) were totally enthralled by the safari and would totally recommend Pasanna! We went on the full day safari (starting at 430am … totally worth the early start to be the first in the park!!) - which allowed a full day of immersion and a slightly more relaxed pace. (The half day safaris seemed much less relaxed…). Pasanna the driver/ guide has over 13 years experience in the park, had great 4wd drive skills, clearly knew all of the possible routes in the park - and was passionate about showing us all that was possible in the park! He was excellent at spotting hard to see animals! Note that all jeeps have to have 12-2 as rest time in the park …. We easily passed it having lunch and reading books- when the jeeps are not allowed to drive around) . We managed to see a great selection of animals including 2 leopards (which I hear is very rare), multiple families of elephants with their babies which we were able to watch for an extended period of time, water buffalo, deer, samba deer, mongoose, jackals, monkeys, peacocks, lots of amazing birds, crocodiles, monitors and bats. It truly felt like the jungle book. We got home tired, but truly satisfied with the experience! Definitely felt like it was value for money."

Tranquil Sanctuary Yala ★★★

📍 Tranquil Sanctury Yala Rajawatta, Kasingama, Tissamaharama, Tissamaharama

"There were a few coconut trees in the quiet village. However, the facilities were basic; the water heater broke down first, and after it was fixed, the power kept tripping and going out. It didn't seem to match the price."

Oak Ray Wild Yala ★★★★★
"This hotel was part of our tour group booking, and it's popular with Western tourists. The room was reasonably clean and tidy. There's no elevator, but the staff were helpful with luggage. The swimming pool was decent, though it got a bit chilly in the evening. The price, which included breakfast and dinner, was quite good. Drinks at dinner cost extra, but the buffet food was pretty good."

Nature Resort - Yala Safari Hotel ★★
"At first, they said they had not received the order, but after negotiation, they gave in. As a result, they had to pay extra for hot water and air conditioning. The house is like being in a steamer. Without air conditioning, you will suffer from heat stroke. People who want to book should think carefully."

"This place was fantastic, like a beautiful oasis. The pool is fabulous and surrounded by lush greenery, with the occasional peacock visiting. The staff are beyond helpful, in a good way, and always go above and beyond to make the experience enjoyable. It is very well located for both Yala and Uda walawe safari parks, which they organise for you. Totally recommend."
